first speeding ticket

damnt! i got my first speeding ticket today, and i wasn't even trying to speed :-( .. i was driving my mom's car (2.5 TL) and so i didnt have my radar detector.... and i'm just following traffic along, and i remember that i have to turn somewhere coming up.. so i speed up some to pass this big ass SUV and then i see the cop... and he picks out me out of all the speeders

51 in a 35 mph, for those in kc

it was where mission rd turns into tomahawk creek parkway-- it's really swervy and people always go 45 there..

$81.. and i think i'll have to double it to keep it off my record

I sent you a PM. You gotta show to court. But you can pay double and come home with a parking ticket. You can only do this once a year per city.

Hehe, it only took me 15 minutes to go to OP court, plead, adjust, pay, and leave. It's almost a racket. Most states have something similar.
